Multiple Front-End servers ?   
We have a client with one front-end server connecting to multiple back-ends 
in multiple countries.  I'd like to implement an additional front-end in 
another country, add an entry for it to their MX record with a higher costing 
and leave both in place, one to act as a redundant backup in case one of 
their ISPs goes down (it's happened before)...is this possible ?  Can an 
Exchange organization have multiple front-end servers ?

Many thanks.

You can have multiple Front Ends yes, we have 8 here, soon to be 9 - serving 
3 clustered backends.
